Need info..
Well,I am probably going to sound stupid, but I bought my 2000 Ranger XLT sport 2 weeks before being stationed in Germany, so i havnt really had any time to learn much about what its got. If anyone can give me some info on what my truck has for stock gears, drivetrain, etc. i would appreciate it. Also, I am doing some mods to it such as a 3" body lift and 3" Suspension lift and 35" BFG's, ive been told that i should do something with the gears, but no one has told me what i should do....

ok first need more info from you.. manual or auto. 3.0L or 4.0L?
body lift go with Performance Accessories, suspension the cheapest you are looking at is 4" superlift at $1500ish plus $500 for the front drive shaft.
for gears 2 ways to find out.. go on the diff and look at the tag, it will tell you the gears, or look at the door axle tag and give us the #..

look at the door sticker, then look for the 2 digit number under the spot labeled "AXL".....
then look here to find what stock gears you have:

then post them up here......
you definately 100% have a 8.8 axle.....i would say you have a 3.73 open 8.8......
any way you go, when you run the 4" Superlift and a 3" body lift, you need to be running 35" tires......with 35" tires and the 4.0, 4.56 gears is the best choice for gearing.......<--speaking from experience...

If you have a 8.8 this will work. $416 http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
Or you can make you own combo:
